Add perspective 3D plane render mode

One can now do rc->createRenderer(QSGRenderContext::RenderMode3D) in Quick3D.

By default nothing changes, both QQuickWindow and QSGRhiLayer default to
either RenderMode2D or RenderMode2DNoDepthBuffer, depending on
QSG_NO_DEPTH_BUFFER. (the environment variable handling is moved out of
qsgbatchrenderer.cpp however, leaving it up to whoever is creating the
renderer to passing the appropriate flag)

The RenderMode3D mode is a modified version of the QSG_NO_DEPTH_BUFFER case:
only alpha batches are used, which are then rendered back to front. The
difference is that this is done with depth test on (no write), so the
2D content gets depth tested against whatever is already in the depth buffer.
Then, there's an additional depth "post pass" to fill the depth buffer with the
2D content. This must be separate from the color-write enabled stage because
otherwise unavoidable Z fighting would occur. By filling the depth buffer,
other 3D or 2D content, that is rendered afterwards, can depth test correctly
against the 2D elements rendered here.

customRenderMode and related functions are renamed to visualization
(because that's what it is about), in order to prevent confusing name
clashes.
